[bit.listserv.christia] To Peter again

     Peter,

     Point of confusion. The "incarnation of the Christ", and "The Christ
 may make itself apparent in any form that it will" causes some confusion on
 my part. This would indicate to me that "the Christ" is only some type of
 force or something. God, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are all "persons",
 and though they are a force, they are by no means "it".

     All of God's prophets were given His Holy Spirit, and the Bible makes
 it quite evident that God was the driving force. Where does this "the
 Christ" force come from? God never mentions it(as such).

     Also, if under the anointing of "the Christ" Jesus says, "I am the way,
 the truth and the life, no man comes to the Father but by Me." Then
 wouldn't anyone else under the "Christ" anointing say they were the way,
 truth and life, and they would get you to the Father?

     Andrew answered the "judgement" question. Rev 20:12. "The dead were
 judged according to what they had done as recorded in the books." God puts
 a conscience within us. We know what is right and what isn't. Problem is,
 without Jesus and/or the Holy Spirit to give us strength, we often choose
 to do wrong. Also, when these books are opened, and they turn to the page
 marked "Michael Kline", they won't be able to read it because it will be
 covered with the blood of Jesus. It may also say "Paid in full, Jesus
 Christ".

     Something else I thought about was that if "the Christ" had to keep
 coming back as other persons, doesn't this nullify the scriptures that said
 Jesus did it "once and for all", a "finished work"? Wouldn't seem to be
 finished if it had to be done over and over again.
